UCW-GA Committees

UCW-GA Steering Committee

Local Executive Board Representative for Georgia: Keegan Brooks
Unit Chair: Julie Carmine LaCorte
Unit Vice Chair: Paul Grant
Unit Treasurer: Andrew Zhao
Unit Secretary: Moss Joslin

Our members use lots of different words for "what UCW-GA is"—a unit, a "statewide", or simply our union—but to clarify:

United Campus Workers of Georgia is a division of of CWA Local 3821, United Campus Workers Southeast.
- In CWA, such divisions are typically called bargaining units and represented by a member of the Local Executive Board (LEB).
- Georgia's LEB representative serves on the Georgia Steering Committee as an ex officio member.
- Since our State Legislature prevents public sector workers in Georgia from collectively bargaining for fair pay and decent working conditions, it may not make sense to call UCW Georgia a bargaining unit. But when connecting with others in CWA and in other unions, saying "our unit" will probably make more sense to them than "our statewide".
In United Campus Workers Southeast's Bylaws, Article V states the role of the Georgia Steering Committee in union governance:
- to take action and make decisions in matters delegated by the membership or by the Local Executive Board.
